As humans, we constantly do a very bad thing and we think that it’s ok and expected of us because of where we worship God but it’s not. What could that be? Evaluation. Evaluation of events could be helpful, but the evaluation of people and what they do is not.

Why not? Good question! Very simply put: it’s not our job, it’s Gods and God’s alone.

We wont ever be in charge now or in judgment, but God is.

Unfortunately there are many religions and people who have a habit of basing what they do on what people do and that is called being judgmental.



The Bible is extremely clear on this:
Matt 7:1-2
7:1 "Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 2 For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
NIV

So, don’t judge others! Their lives are between them and God, NOT YOU! Not man made rules!

Your job is to love them. When Jesus came to this earth we were all sinners and lost. But now we are forgiven, not sinless but forgiven. We now have the gift of God’s grace. We haven’t changed one bit but we have been forgiven and accepted by God as we are. That is what makes it so wonderful and amazing.

Having gone through the transition of being a genius and very successful to a TBI and handicapped and poor myself, one thing has not changed for me at all: God is God and I am not.

People are people and God made them, so regardless of what they do, I don’t have to evaluate them or choose to do what they do because that’s between us and God alone, no I can only love them. So that’s my job, yours too.

Who Cares?


I have been reading through Job and I have learned many things about God that I thought were important so I wanted to pass on to you.

Horrible things happen to Job over and over again. But God finally stepped in and talked to Job in chapter 38. And the things that He said really got me to thinking, so read them and think about them!

He was very clear and talked about some of the things that He had done. When He talked about things it made all of them make good sense and it made me think too. They should make you think too.

God created everything and He makes everything behave properly so that we can depend on it and gain something positive out of it.

But in John 16:33 He tells us clearly that in this world we will have trouble! But then He says to take heart because He has overcome the world.

So what does that mean? Will there be no trouble? No. Job had a great deal of trouble too but he believed in God. His faith needed some adjustment, but he had faith.

So our faith may need some adjustment. Mine did.

No matter what you may be reading now, read the book of Job! I did and my faith has grown and changed! I read The Message and I think that it is easy to understand. It’s a part of God’s word for a very good reason.

There is a commercial on television for Travelers Insurance and it says that at one time there were people who were concerned with all kinds of things like shopping carts and dust but now with Travelers Insurance they just say: Who cares?

Well, certainly Travelers Insurance can’t make bad things not happen, so there isn’t really any Who Cares? It is just a commercial to increase business, and increasing business means increasing dollars in this world.

But we have God. And while God didn’t make all of Job’s troubles go away or not happen, He won’t make ours go away or not happen either. He is capable and He does watch us, but faith doesn’t mean a perfectly simple and wonderful life on this earth. In Heaven yes, but on earth no.


Even though God created this earth and does create each person in it, one angel that He also created, Satan, also rules this earth, but not Heaven. God will rule there, and if you have real faith then you will go there.

So when bad things happen on this earth, and they will, if we have real faith, then we can really say Who Cares? Because we will know where we are going and who will be in charge.

Yes, this life will be hard, but the next life in Heaven won’t. There’s your hope!

Grace and God

Everyone knows what Grace is and how awesome it is and that it was a gift to us from God.

Everyone also knows and believes that God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow.

But few know the perceived correlation between these two things, but this morning I feel that I have been shown the relationship between the two and I’m sharing it with you.

Now if God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow, then Grace wasn’t something brand new to God. I refer you Adam and Eve-the FIRST human beings.

Did they support God’s will? No. And after they made their choice to do so God removed them from the Garden to become like you and I. And we are the same as them, and God has given us Grace.

Unmerited love and favor. That’s God.

So we can see that Grace was nothing new God. Yes, they had to leave and begin a totally new life and yes, they suffered many consequences and yes they began to die, in time, but not right away.

Couldn’t they simply have been extinguished by the God who had made them? Yes, but something else came into play there.

Could it have been God’s Gracc? Maybe, because God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow and He gave us Grace, so He always has known Grace.

I could be wrong but this appears to me to be the first demonstration of God’s Grace and it has always been there.
